Last day!

“Are we bound for liberty? Or is liberty bound?" This is the question first-time director Christine Rose presents in her new documentary Liberty Bound. Part road film, part reality show, thoughtful, frightening and provocative, this could very well be the thinking man/woman’s Fahrenheit 9/11. Rose takes a journey through America post-9/11, but before the beginning of the Iraq War. On the way she encounters an America in transition - changed by the horror of the attacks, but even more (and what becomes one of the central tenet’s of the film) by the perceived stranglehold being put on the people of America by its own government. Rose sidesteps the “black helicopter” crowd by being both thoughtful and patient as she lets her journey unfold. In one of several compelling interviews, Howard Zinn speaks on the coming demise of this current power paradigm. The iconoclastic historian explains how the Bush agenda is setting the stage for the eventual collapse of the American government itself.
